Chapter 49： Deposed

The prince was kneeling on the floor of the study, and the emperor Ren had beaten and scolded for nearly an hour, just as the queen had told him, but he couldn't speak. How the emperor kicked, howled, how to abolish his crown prince, he just cried and kowtow, without making any excuses.

Finally, the sound of drum music came from outside the hall, and the emperor was tired from beating and scolding. He sat down, gasping slightly and asked: "What's the matter?"

Grandpa Sun asked him to go out. After a while, a **** ran in and whispered to the emperor: "The queen is asking for an audience."

The emperor immediately said: "No!"

The **** hesitated for a moment and said in a lower voice: "The queen said, if the emperor does not see her, she will talk to the public about how the emperor succeeded to the throne..."

The emperor tried hard to shoot the case again: "She's the opposite! Let her come in, I think she doesn't want to be the queen anymore!"

The **** went out, and not long after, the queen walked in step by step amidst the drum music outside the hall.

The emperor looked at the haggard empress who was dressed in Yonghua. He was in a daze for a while. He hadn't seen the empress for a long time. He felt that this woman was getting more and more vicious, completely devoid of femininity, and he was uncomfortable seeing her. Now, he seemed to remember when she was young, when she was beautiful and attractive, and he was very young...

The queen glanced at the prince who was kneeling on the ground in embarrassment, snorted with her nose, and then said to the emperor: "See the emperor." In her tone, there was no respect for it.

The emperor was also upset: "What is Zitong here for?"

The queen looked at the **** lady behind her and said, "If you don't want to die, get out!"

The queen's people left one after another, and the emperor's eunuchs looked at the emperor's wink. The emperor hated the queen for being so arrogant in front of him, but he could only grit his teeth and waved his hand to get his own people, including Grandpa Sun, to retreat, so as not to say something inappropriate.

Seeing that everyone had left, the queen said lightly: "It was my palace who sent people to kill the fourth son of Zhenbeihou."

The emperor sneered: "You want to commit the crime for your son."

The queen also sneered: "He told the palace about protecting the black dragon, and also said that the four sons of Zhenbeihou are black. Bah! It is so easy to protect the black dragon. Tai = the ancestor built a new dynasty. God’s protection still makes sense. The dynasty has been harvesting year after year without war and chaos. Why did the black dragon come to **** someone? Or the emperor feels that his power is unstable and shaky, and he is so weak that he needs the black dragon to protect..."

The emperor shouted angrily: "How dare you curse me, you don't want to live anymore!"

The queen was not afraid, and still sneered and said: "It is a curse to say that the child is a black dragon! A broken black child makes the emperor suffer from the gains and losses, and the emperor forgets how the emperor got the throne. If the first emperor listened to the words of the old town Beihou, stand up The emperor’s brother, will the black boy come to protect the emperor today. If the emperor’s brother didn’t die because of the horse’s fright, he might have come to help the emperor’s brother!"

The emperor was so angry that he could only keep saying: "You...you..."

The queen raised her head arrogantly: "What's wrong with this palace? This palace just can't let the emperor take the black boy to make a fuss, find a mistake to pull my son from the position of prince, and then look for a chance to help that bitch's child become a prince. This palace is going to kill him! Cut the emperor's mind to avoid future troubles!"

The emperor's face was hideous: "You dare to... dare to do politics..."

The queen said with disdain: "What does it mean that the emperor has forgotten that before ascending to the throne, he often went to this palace to discuss with this palace how to keep a low profile, so as to gain the trust of the first emperor. Smart. At that time, why didn't the emperor say that the palace was in politics"

The emperor pointed to the queen and said: "That's just behind the people! And you are now breaking into my study and pointing fingers at me. This is not a political action! With me behind your back, you dare to murder the son of a military commander..."

The empress hummed: "Is the emperor confused as to which family is far away, and can't tell whether one side is a black child who has never seen him before, or a descendant who did not want the emperor to enthrone the throne! On the other side is his own child. Whose palace knows very well! If it is for my son, what would be the killing of Zhenbeihou’s son, if his daughter caused the palace’s daughter to break the picture, this palace should give him a great deal too!”

The emperor said angrily: "Who do you think you are! You are not me! How dare you act for me!"

The queen smiled coldly: "This palace is a queen, a person of the emperor. This palace feels unhappy. The emperor should have vented his anger for the house. But what did the emperor do to the palace’s daughter was injured, and the emperor condemned it. nor…"

The emperor shook his head: "You are so arrogant! I acted to make you happy! Who am I, who are you, when you married me, you were just a concubine!"

The queen also retorted sharply: "What's wrong with the side concubine! The emperor did not dislike the side concubine of this palace at the beginning! At that time, the emperor did not ascend the throne, how many times he went to this palace to swear each other and quote Bai Juyi's song of long hatred! What, the emperor should remember..."

The emperor interrupted: "Didn't I make you a queen? Didn't I make your son a prince"

The queen's face was stiff: "That's just one or two of them. Did the emperor forget the others?"

The emperor shook his head incredulously: "You are still not satisfied. You actually think that I can pet a person alone because of this absurd idea. You have been so tossed all these years. You thought that the queen died for unknown reasons. My favorite princess, two The emperor’s death I don’t know how many concubines and children died in the harem. I don’t know if I tolerate you so much, you are not enough! You insatiable woman! Why can't you get the sole favor, so you want to destroy me? The country"

The queen flushed because of being ridiculed, and retorted, "The emperor would really exaggerate. This palace just wanted to get rid of the child because he didn't want the emperor to be constrained by Zhenbeihoufu in the future. It didn't happen, so they killed a few. The servants, how come this ruined the emperor’s country, the emperor’s country should be stronger than this, my palace said, and it is not when changing the dynasty, how can it be used to protect the black dragon!"

The emperor scolded: "You unexpectedly uttered a curse again... If you don't want to live anymore, I will fulfill you!"

The prince knelt over and hugged the emperor’s knees and cried: "Father, please calm down, please..."

Both the emperor and the queen looked at the prince, and the prince was full of tears: "...forgive the mother and the queen!" This meant that the queen was guilty.

The emperor kicked the prince away, and the queen said loudly: "If you kicked him, what you did with this palace will naturally be recognized by this palace!..."

During the struggle, someone outside shouted: "The emperor! The fifth prince ate rat poison by mistake and died!"

The emperor's eyes widened in surprise, and pointed to the queen: "You actually...you are! You are so bold!"

The queen sneered: "What does this have to do with this palace!"

The fifth prince was just a young man. The emperor had seen him in the past and was shy away from his mother and concubine. The emperor turned a blind eye to him, but now he is dead! This is not the same thing! The emperor believed that having many children and grandchildren was a blessing, but there are still a few princes left!

He just felt that the prince had betrayed him, even if it was really like what the queen said, telling the queen only about the black dragon, it was a betrayal! The queen will definitely start after hearing this. Isn't this just telling the queen clearly or letting the queen kill someone!

And the three princes have been competing with themselves, and after winter hunting, they still don't accept the lesson. The meeting is not only not flattering, but also cold and indifferent. It is usually nothing but can't be recruited, and it is not affectionate during the New Years. Obviously, it is divorced! He just thought that he should start training the fifth prince to replace the prince, but the fifth prince died like this! Obviously the queen was instigated! This woman! This is a fight to the death with oneself!

This event finally became the last straw that caused the camel to fall to the ground. The emperor's anger was completely transferred to the queen, shouting: "Come here! Come!" More than 20 eunuchs poured in from the door.

The prince cried repeatedly: "Father, father!..."

The emperor tremblingly pointed to the queen and said: "Dethrone the Jia family empress and be reduced to Jing concubine! Change to live in the cold palace today!" Jing-you speak less!

The prince rushed to the queen's side and took the queen's hand and said: "Mother, queen, please beg my father for mercy!" He suddenly found that the queen's hands were as dry as wood and as cold as ice.

The queen shook off the prince's hand, raised her hand with a sneer, took off the phoenix crown by herself, and threw it on the ground fiercely, exclaiming all around, and jewels splashing on the ground. The queen contemptuously inspected the emperor and the crying prince beside her, turned and walked out. Although her stomach hurts badly, she tried to straighten her body.

The emperor fell into the chair with anger, and the prince knelt and walked to the emperor’s knee: "Father! Father! Forgive the queen!"

The emperor bit his posterior teeth and said, "I am worthy of her by keeping her life! What else are you going to do! She dare... even dare..."

The prince cried: "It's the child's fault... it's the child's fault..."

The emperor looked at the prince with an unusually sharp gaze. The prince saw the look and lowered his eyes with a guilty conscience. He said with tears: "The child shouldn't tell the mother about the black dragon... I went to discuss with the mother's queen..."

The emperor pushed the prince away vigorously: "From this matter, you should understand that you have to think twice when you encounter problems, and don't learn from those women with long tongues!" The prince repeatedly said yes.

The emperor was very tired, and another **** came in and said: "A **** and two court ladies died on the queen's side, both of them committed suicide."

The emperor waved his hand to the prince. The prince stood up with difficulty and swayed. When the two eunuchs met, they hurriedly stepped forward to support him. The prince saluted the emperor, but the emperor did not move. The prince was stepped out of the door by two eunuchs.

The prince had been away for a long time, and people cleaned up the ground. Only when the emperor and grandpa who beat him silently on the back were in the house, the emperor whispered: "This is really the hand of the queen...Jing Concubine"

Grandpa Sun did not dare to answer, and the emperor said to himself: "If it is really like that, the prince would be considered filial if he kept his mouth shut and refused to confess his mother... but if it wasn't like that..."

After a long time, the emperor sighed deeply: "I really don't like Zhenbeihou. Let the prince continue to be the prince. You can't let Zhenbeihou be too proud!" It was really replaced by the third prince. To the heart of Zhenbeihou! The queen's phrase "the descendants who didn't want the emperor to ascend the throne" once again pierced the emperor's heartache, evoking the emperor's hatred of the old town Beihou, spreading to the present Zhenbeihou. Moreover, if the three princes are assisted by Zhenbeihou, it is possible to force the palace in the future. Only the prince can be kept now, but this is obviously what the queen arranged, and the emperor feels disgusted.

Sun Gonggong whispered: "The emperor is wise."

The emperor gritted his teeth and said, "That stupid woman! For this reason, she killed the fifth prince! She was determined not to be a queen before she came!" The final blow swept away a possible future opponent for the prince.

Grandpa Sun didn't dare to speak again.

The emperor sighed for a while, and said: "Find more young ones who are good for health. Whether she goes down, I have to have more children."

Grandpa Sun hurriedly agreed this time.

That night, although the decree of the abolition had not been issued, the queen, now Concubine Jia Jing, had moved out of the queen's palace and moved into one of the deserted courtyards to the north of the palace. Fortunately, her son is still the prince, so people still respect Jia Jingfei's attitude.

Concubine Jia Jing sat on the hard wooden bed, looking at the humble environment that was thousands of miles away from her own bedroom in the morning, she was so headache that she wanted to hack her head with an axe. She sighed deeply, lay down in her clothes, and said to herself: "At least you don't have to attend the silkworm ceremony, and you don't need to look at those abominable women. No one is kind..."

Soon, she barely fell asleep, dimly, as if the shadows in the room were moving slowly, but she was too tired to look at it.

The four princes were stupid when they heard the news. They sat in front of a chess game that night, staring at the chessboard blankly, and didn't play a single piece.

In the past few tricks, he can see the traces of elaborate design in the subtleties. But after this time it was abandoned, it was completely out of the sky, and there was no trace to follow. Although the death of the fifth prince can be used as a reason, there was once a second prince who died in the palace, whom the emperor admired as a genius. After that, the queen was fine. After the death of a five prince who did not get the emperor's attention, the emperor would not let the emperor abolish the position of Jia's queen. It seems that the main reason for the abolition is that the queen admitted that she had sent someone to kill Zhenbeihou's fourth son.

The emperor’s blockade of the legend of the black dragon made the four princes unable to figure out the ins and outs of the entire incident: how could the person playing chess behind the scenes lure the queen to murder the fourth son of Zhenbeihou? It is said that the child didn’t even speak. Can speak! After the defeat, the queen was forced to silence her mouth again and again, and finally she came out to confess her guilt and lost her seat. Looking at this situation, it is probably for the prince to commit the crime, but the words come back again: Why did the prince kill the child in order to avenge the four princesses...how can it not reach this level? Therefore, apart from the prince and the queen who missed a terrible move, the four princes really couldn't think of any other explanations.

The prince sat in despair and returned to the East Palace. He was too weak to stand. The **** wanted to help him back to the bedroom, but the prince signaled that he was going to the meeting room. The **** immediately asked him to move the deck chair and put it in the meeting room. He helped the prince to lie down halfway. The prince said weakly: "Let them all come, come right away."

The **** hurriedly went out to summon the prince’s confidant and the Donggong officials to see that the prince’s lips were chapped and he was served tea.

The prince drank a sip of tea, barely calmed down, and lay on the recliner, feeling empty and at a loss: how did he fall to this point, where did the spirited self go? Before the big wedding, the prince who was determined to be the prince must win; after the canonization , The self who can speak for the court affairs... how come you have come to today's situation, you have to sacrifice your own position as the queen mother to keep your position as a prince. What went wrong?

One after another, the staff and Donggong's confidants all entered the room. Everyone gave a salute, and the prince did not answer, but only closed his eyes and lay halfway. When everyone arrived, the prince waited for a long time, making everyone think that he called everyone to come to see him sleep, the prince slowly said: "This palace will completely eradicate Zhenbeihou, Shen Jiajun... Zhenbeihoufu, don’t Speaking of cats and dogs, no mouse can stay!"

The room was dead. For a long time, a person hesitated and said: "Zhenbeihou is holding a heavy soldier, if the emperor doesn't..."

The prince interrupted: "Don't count on your father."

After a long time, one person said carefully: "If you don't rely on the emperor, you can only rely on foreigners..."

For a while, everyone looked at the prince in silence.

The prince nodded slowly and said, "Think of a good way." Then he waved everyone back.

Before everyone ran over, they all knew the news after the abolition. They thought they would be scolded by a violent storm. They didn't expect to dismiss it so lightly. While breathing a sigh of relief, they became difficult for the errand requested by the prince: colluding with foreigners. It is not easy to destroy Zhenbeihou.

The prince had his next goal, and the fear in his heart dissipated slightly. He closed his eyes and muttered to himself: "This is what you forced me to do. In this life and this life, this palace is incompatible with you!"

If you ask about this "you", the prince will definitely say the three princes, plus the brothers and sisters of Zhenbei Hou Shenyi, and perhaps the emperor. But in his heart, what he thinks now is everyone, including the princess.

People say that they think of someone, and that person will come. Someone outside said: "The princess is here."

The prince only felt an anger rising from his chest and abdomen, causing his face to burn.

Choosing Lu at the time was indeed because her grandfather was quite influential in the dynasty and was able to instigate many civil servants. When the prince who was still the eldest prince had arranged to meet the girls of various families, the prince even saw Lu's face and agreed to the queen's suggestion and expressed his choice to the emperor.

After getting married, the princess was born in a family of civil servants, and she was indeed gentle and virtuous. Although she was not a first-class beauty, she did not hate it. When they were newly married, they were able to talk with the prince who was still the eldest prince, and they got along well. But after the grand prince canonized the prince, the prince did not have a child for a year, the prince began to spend the night in the concubine and other concubine's rooms frequently, the prince became gloomy, and then the women began to have a baby.

The prince grew up in the harem, and the queen was one of the masters. How could he not understand that although he did not have thousands of choices, but the candidates for the first wife were all noble ladies with dignified temperaments from famous families, but why he was so unlucky and picked. A person who resembles his mother's queen becomes a wife!

Thinking of this, the prince felt blocked and hated again. It is understandable that the mother and the queen acted on the harem concubine to protect herself. But when the prince did this, she knew she wanted to cut her off from grandchildren!

It has not been five years since the two were married, and even ordinary people cannot divorce their wives according to the law of "seven outs." What's more, if you are a prince, how can you change the prince casually, let alone the other party's implicated courtiers' support.

While the prince was feeling upset, the princess walked in with a palace man carrying a food tray. She bowed to the prince and motioned to the palace man to put the food plate on the prince’s recliner, and waited for the palace man to withdraw, before she said: "I heard that my concubine was unwell, and the concubine made chicken soup specially. There are some side dishes, please eat your Highness."

The prince knelt at the emperor’s place for most of the day, beaten and scolded, and then saw his mother being demoted, and the rice grains did not touch her teeth for a day. He was terribly uncomfortable when he heard the prince say this, but said coldly: "Princess Duolao" Now, the palace has to rest on its own, and the princess will withdraw."

The princess has a small face, and even her facial features are very delicate. She is almost 20 years old, but she is still like a fourteen-five-year-old girl. The prince glanced at the princess's delicate nose and small mouth and chin, and he was disgusted. At the beginning, I looked at the place where I liked to play, but now it is all weakness: some staff say that a thin nose is a sign of childlessness, and a small mouth and chin are a bleak evening scene. The prince then thought that if the prince concubine had a bleak evening scene, and what she was, if she was childless, she would definitely be a concubine, and looking at her current affiliation, she didn’t even have a concubine.

The prince was lying sideways inward, not wanting to see the prince again. The princess came to know from the **** that the queen was verbally degraded to the concubine Jing. Although the court still had to negotiate with the courtiers, it was the emperor who changed his words. This was a huge blow to the queen. As her son, the prince must also be very sad. I want to take this opportunity to comfort the prince and ease the relationship between the next two people. After all, I really want a child. This is something only two people can do.

Seeing the prince turned her back, the prince took a breath and said softly: "His Royal Highness, no matter what happens, your body is the most important thing, or something to eat..."

The prince interrupted impatiently: "Well, you can withdraw!"

The crown prince made further efforts: "His Royal Highness, if your Royal Highness needs it, I can... go back and ask my grandfather..."

The prince tried desperately, and didn't let himself get up and slap the princess in the face!

What do you mean if I "need"? Is this asking me to beg you? Now that you see my mother being degraded, you will start to take it up. If you are sincere, I haven't spoken yet, you will go back. Now it is time to tell me that you have begged your grandfather, and tomorrow, they will try their best to persuade the emperor not to abolish the queen. To say so pretentiously, I have to say "need"!

But the prince also knew that it was not time to tear his face. After all, the marriage with the prince concubine was based on Taifu Lu's influence, and even if he didn't use it, it couldn't be ruined by this squirrel-like woman. Whenever I really have a plan to attract foreigners to get rid of Zhenbeihou, then I don't need to rely on the support of these civilians anymore. Excluding Zhenbeihou, the three princes who were unable to rely on military power died and no one redressed him. At that time, who could be the emperor besides himself or not was the support of those courtiers.

When the anger passed, the prince said in a calm tone as much as possible: "That's not necessary. Taifu Lu is getting older in the end, and he should take good care of him. For many things, he has more than enough energy but lacks energy."

The princess bit her lower lip and said carefully: "Your Royal Highness, my grandfather..."

The prince interrupted: "You are a woman, don't always think about these extraneous things. It's time to check now, why are so many women in the East Palace that can't have children! My palace and you have been married for four years. If your child’s interest is in the way, you should help the palace to loosen the leaves and blossom. After all, there are three things in filial piety, and the crown princess shouldn’t fall into the filial palace in a place of filial piety.”

The prince was in the cold war in the past, and he has never spoken so openly.

The princess held back tears, flushed, and bowed her head and said: "I am the majesty's regular wife, and my concubine has not yet come out. If the concubine is a long-term child, I am afraid that in the future, I will be more confused..."

The prince snorted: "This palace is a bastard, according to your practice, shouldn't the prince be born?"

The princess hurriedly saluted: "Please forgive your sins."

The prince did not look back, and said coldly: "What can you do to you without forgiveness? Now this palace is only the prince, you let this palace not even have a child, if one day you become a queen, are you even The harem has been removed by you"

The crown prince hurriedly knelt down: "His Royal Highness is serious! Listening to your Highness, it is that I did the tyres! Wrong! Your Highness, when I didn’t have someone to take care of me, I also really wanted to let His Highness have children as soon as possible. Yeah! Besides, all the children they give birth have to call me aunt, isn't it my child..."

The prince heard too much of her defense, and said impatiently: "It's OK, you will get ten sentences to come back after you say one sentence. It really deserves to come from the family of scholars. If you don't say anything, you can still be cunning. "

The crown prince cried: "His Royal Highness! The concubines really have never done anything!..."

The prince did not listen at all: "If you have anything to cry now, if the three emperors marry a wife and have children, how long can the prince in this palace do it? You will cry again at that time! Don't quit!"

The princess cried and got up and walked out, and out of the hall, the **** played a lantern to lead the way. Seeing the night, two palace lanterns swaying, approaching, but a fluttering veil Liu Bianfei, accompanied by two eunuchs with lanterns and two palace ladies, one of the palace ladies is also holding a food. plate.

Although Liu Bianfei did not have a beautiful appearance, her figure was slim and plump, and her dress was even more revealing. Tonight turned out to be wearing a coat imitating Tang suit, the neckline opened up to the shoulders, and only a moon white tulle was wrapped around it.

Concubine Liu Fang was not so overpowering in the past. After the crown princess did not give birth for a year, her concubines had a tyre, especially Concubine You had a tyre. After the crown prince became less and less pleasing, Concubine Liu changed her taciturn and conservative character. The bleak attire suddenly reborn, proudly highlighting the secret weapon that he had been hiding in the past... the chest-weapon that later generations called, let everyone's chin fall, and successfully got the prince's eyeballs.

The princess did not want Liu Bianfei to see that she was crying, and turned her face away from her. But when Concubine Liu saw that the princess had a bad face, she deliberately got close to the princess and saluted the princess, and said with a tired voice, "the princess is well!"

The princess ignored her and walked straight forward. I felt that if the fisherman who was fighting between the snipe and the clam spoke, it was probably in this tone.

Concubine Liu Bianfei raised her sleeves to cover her lips and smiled, twisted her waist and went outside the prince's study, and was called in soon after.

The prince concubine couldn't help but slowed down, and not far away, she heard a scream from Concubine Liu's side in the study, followed by a few short calls. She couldn't help but turn her head, and saw that under the light over there, the palace people stood a little farther away.

The princess turned her head back and speeded up her pace, her tears blurred the lantern guiding the **** into a cloud of yellow water.

In the rage, Shen Wen resorted to using a knife to kill people, but when everyone was dead, she didn't feel the pleasure of revenge. If Chen Guifei died early to make Shen Wen feel sorry, the life she caused indirectly this time made her feel a deep sense of heaviness, and she was silent. She suddenly understood why those who could see the future did not take action to change the future, because in the action, perhaps some people who were dying might be saved, but the interests and even lives of other people must be sacrificed. And these, if they are guilty, Those who have changed their destiny will eventually be held accountable, and those who have no relatives and no reasons for the destined deceased will certainly not be willing to bear it. She is different. She is in a sea of ​​blood and hatred. She can't stand by and watch the future, but in the operation, is she too cruel...

Seeing Shen Wen sighed again, Su Wanniang, who helped Shen Wen to sleep, sat beside Shen Wen and said, "You didn't kill those people. Don't embarrass yourself so much."

Shen Wen whispered: "I didn't think I killed them, but I didn't save them."

Su Wanniang asked: "How to save"

Shen Wen replied: "Beat those people half to death on the spot, blast them out of the house, and drive their families out."

Su Wanniang thought for a moment, and said: "If so, they can indeed survive, and their family will not be suspected. But then you will be enemies of the Hou Mansion again. Those people are not loyal, otherwise they will not betray their masters. They are. I am not grateful that you saved them by beating them! They will hate the Hou Mansion even more by beating them, and they will definitely continue to follow the prince. In the future, the Hou Mansion will be a disaster, and those people are the people who came to kill the Hou Mansion! Uncertainly, I will kill the little son again. Do you think there are some people in their family who will prevent them from doing such bad things. When they step on the blood of the Hou Mansion and get a good life, their family will not follow Xiangfu and these people to take refuge in the prince, that is The honor and disgrace of those who bring their wealth in the past are chosen by them for their family members. Wherever there is a reason why they can be a **** and fail to do anything, but the family can be safe and okay. I said before, where can you be a rape? If the owner can’t, take it. You can’t be a gangster if you flee with your family to avoid disasters. Just looking at the benefits, I didn’t expect the consequences..."

In Su Wanniang's nagging, Shen Wen exhaled for a long time: "Well, I don't think much about it."

Su Wanniang got up and made the bed while she whispered: "Look at such a cruel hand over there this time, Qian Anya must have passed it." At that time, Shen Jian said that even if one person tells the truth, Zhenbeihou can go there. The emperor complained that he was clearly forcing the prince to kill him. And the prince really did that, it must be Shen Jian's words that were conveyed to the prince.

Shen Wen nodded: "I hope she and the rest of the people can understand and get out sooner."

Su Wanniang shook her head and said, "I don't think it's necessary. Zheng has long been fascinated by the money.

After being persuaded by Su Wanniang, Shen Wen felt a little relieved. When Su Wanniang was asleep on the side bunk, she was still meditating. Suddenly, she felt something in her heart, quietly returning to God from nothingness, and then slowly spreading her consciousness, aware that someone was standing outside the house. That kind of feeling should be Duke Gu, just like the confrontation in the palace.

After a while, the people outside left. Shen Wen pulled out a simple night gown from his pillow, put it on the outside of his nightgown, and opened the window lightly. Su Wanniang, who had fallen asleep, turned over. Now that Shen Wen knew that Su Wanniang was extremely prone to insomnia, she didn't want to tell her, so he hurriedly turned the window and chased it out.

After leaving the Hou Mansion all the way, Shen Wen chased him wildly in the direction of the palace, but he didn't see a figure. Shen Wen gave up and turned back to the Hou Mansion.

She wondered, Grandpa Gu did not stay for a long time. Could it be that he came to step on the spot, why did he find himself when he came to the Hou Mansion or did he come at the emperor's words...

As he was thinking, there was a "hiss" on the side, Shen Wen slowed down, and a dark shadow flashed out. Shen Wen knew who it was. He didn't stop, and went on walking for a while, found a corner with no one to stop, and waited for Zhang Yunzheng to follow him.
